We can send mails using SMTP settings in AutoIT.
But is there anyway to read the mails and start the program if we get the mail with the particular subject.

I mean, I have automated a build process and it starts from windows task scheduler my autoit program at morning 3 AM.
If it fails in the middle, it will be sent to the dev team guys with the logs as attachment.
Then I am connecting manually to the remote machine to trigger the task again.
Is there anyway to start this task once I receive a mail with the specific subject like "start the build" automatically.

Is there any way to launch an application once I receive an email.
I have an executable created in autoit and I am running it regularly on daily basis using task scheduler on windows.
And sometimes I am running it again manually if someone asks to.
Is there anyway to configure an email so that when I send a mail to that particular email ID then it should launch that exe directly?

Hello
I'm using the code below to send mails using our internal relay server.
We got a Helpdesk system named Remedy. Our users can send us a mails using outlook 2010, and we'll get a ticket.
The problem is if I send a mail using the above script our ticket system can't display unicode characters, like ex: Æ Ø Å. It will display them as: questionmarks: "? ? ?" inside our ticket system. In the outlook inbox it looks fine showing unicode symbols, but in our ticket system the unicode characters will be replaced by questionmarks.
The thing is, if they send a mail using outlook, it works fine, but using the script above it doesen't.
I tried to save my script with encoding: UTF-8 with BOM, but it didn't fix it.

Hi! I want to send by mail some files with a certain extension (.xml in my case). These files are located in the script folder. First, I thought to use _FileListToArrayRec function to have a list of these files. But than I don't know how to send them all at once. I know that I can attach multiple files in this way: path1;path2;path3; etc. and so I have tried to make a string of this type with the path of the files (with a for loop) but It doesn't attach any file (only instructions.txt). How could I do? ( what I did is just an idea, if there's something better that would be great) Thanks!
$aArrayXml = _FileListToArrayRec(@ScriptDir, "*.xml", $FLTAR_FILES)
_ArrayDisplay($aArrayXml, "LIST XML")
$LenghtArrayXml = UBound($aArrayXml)
If ($LenghtArrayXml > 2) Then
For $i = 2 To $LenghtArrayXml - 1
$temp = "&@ScriptDir&""\"&$aArrayXml[$i]&";"&""""
$XmlListFile = $XmlListFile & $temp
Next
EndIf
$XmlListFile = StringTrimLeft($XmlListFile, 1)
if($LenghtArrayXml = 2)Then
$rc =_INetSmtpMailCom($s_SmtpServer, $s_FromName, $s_FromAddress, $s_ToAddress, $s_Subject, $as_Body, @ScriptDir&"\"&$aArrayXml[1]&";"&@ScriptDir&"\instructions.txt", $s_CcAddress, $s_BccAddress, $s_Username, $s_Password, $IPPort, $ssl)
Else
$rc = _INetSmtpMailCom($s_SmtpServer, $s_FromName, $s_FromAddress, $s_ToAddress, $s_Subject, $as_Body, @ScriptDir&"\"&$aArrayXml[1]&$XmlListFile&@ScriptDir&"\instructions.txt", $s_CcAddress, $s_BccAddress, $s_Username, $s_Password, $IPPort, $ssl)
EndIf

Purpose of script: To send emails in Outlook based on data in an excel spreadsheet. From: fields are entered for purposes of sending on behalf of (delegate), copies A2 cell from excel for To: field, Subject field is a static value and entered, returns to excel spreadsheet to read A1 and copy the first name and insert into the body of a template at an insertion point. The From, and the body of the email change based on region, so currently I have 6 different scripts that do essentially the same thing with some minor changes and want to consolidate into one script to save time.
Question:
To expedite the process of this and cut down on the amount of scripts, 6 in total I use daily, is it possible for me to somehow add the region to column C in excel, have autoit read column C values per row, and then decide which function, within a master script, to execute and loop this until there is no value in column C field?
Example spreadsheet:
Rob | rob@annuity.com |Midwest
Annie | annie@agency.com | Midwest
Kyle | kyle@agency.com | MidAtlantic
Rick | rick@megasales.com | MidAtlantic
Blank | Blank | Blank |
Example execution:
Run Birthday.au3, execute loop part through hotkey
Reads row 1, C1, value is Midwest, calls Midwest(), script runs as Midwest Birthday.au3 does currently
Reads row 2, C2, value is Midwest, calls Midwest(), script runs as Midwest Birthday.au3 does currently
Reads row 3, C3, value is MidAtlantic, calls MidAtlantic(), script runs as MidAtlantic Birthday.au3 currently
Reads row 4, C4, value is MidAtlantic, calls MidAtlantic(), script runs as MidAtlantic Birthday.au3 currently
Reads row 5, C5, value is null or blank, ends script through Exit

Everything I have coded in my time in AutoIt has been based mostly on mouse based movements and I don't have variable programming knowledge so I feel like I'm close to understanding how to do this, but the reading/storing variables part is beyond my current skill set. Help is appreciated.
Mail Merges don't work as delegated in Outlook 07, for those that might be questioning why I just don't do that.
